Purge cache just for the current user to avoid redirection when 2
simultaneous users try to sign up at the same time and some policy
has to be agreed.
The 'createduser' invalidation event has been removed also because
is not used any more.
Thanks John Azinheira for spotting it!
* External authentication mechanisms (e.g. via oauth2, etc.) don't store
password in the user table, so we shouldn't be requiring password in
such case when creating users via the core_user_create_users WS
function.
Default setting value for new instances is 0
Default setting value for existing instances is 1
to get same search results than before this setting exists
Setting messagingallusers = 1 for behat tests to simulate old versions functionality
Followup: MDL-63911
Add new messaging profile preferences to allow users to choose who
can message them:
- By default, users can select between 'My contacts only' and 'My
contacts and anyone in my courses'
- When $CFG->messagingallusers is enabled, a new option is displayed
also: 'Anyone on the site'. For users who have selected this option,
if $CFG->messagingallusers is disabled, the behaviour will be changed
to 'My contacts and anyone in my courses'
A new optional parameter $context has been added to the
core_group::groups_get_members_join() function.
Besides, some core_group methods now accept -1 (USERSWITHOUTHGROUP) for
the groupid field.
Thanks to MDL-49398, we can separate the combined user session and role
definition cache clearing function into two separate functions. At the
same time, we want to identify and remove mark_dirty() calls that were
added for role definition changes but were incorrectly left behind.
Change highlights:
- Remove unnecessary mark_dirty() calls performed after
assign_capability(), unassign_capability(), delete_role(),
deleted contexts, brand new contexts
- Move role definition cache clear from the user-centric
accesslib_clear_all_caches() to the newly created,
role-dedicated accesslib_reset_role_cache()
Significant string changes:
* completionpass_help, gradetopassnotset in mod_quiz - grade to pass set
in quiz settings not gradebook
* namecolumnmissing,core_cohort - fixing incorrect message about adding
users to a cohort
The core API function user_create_user() did not check the case when the
given username was empty.
Also adding a missing string 'usernamelowercase' for the existing lower
case check and unit tests.
To be consistent with the web administration UI, we should not allow to
create invalid user records with empty username, lastname or firstname
via the web services.
